Glenfinnan

[Drumsagard]

For my second trip out with my Mavic 2 Pro I decided to head to Glenfinnan to try and photograph the Jacobite Steam Train (aka the Hogwarts Express).
Described as the greatest railway journey in the world, the train crosses the viaduct on it's way from Fort William to Mallaig on the West Highland Line.
I managed to take 6 photos as the train crossed the viaduct and didn't get any steam in any of them, in fact don't think I saw any steam at all - typical! lol
(RAW, f6.3, 1/240sec, 100iso, manual WB)

Cheers. Great pic! I had thought of getting in closer too but for my first time there I wanted the whole viaduct in frame...maybe next time

Sorry just realised you meant in Glenfinnan lol I was up on the hillside further up the glen from the viaduct (and all the tourists!).
